Chrissy Teigen shows off her pregnant body in artsy nude photo for Mother's Day after opening up about her battle with postnatal depression
Chrissy Teigen is an outspoken mother of two beautiful children: 3-year-old Luna Simone Stephens and 11-month-old Miles Theodore Stephens.
And that title of 'Mom,' has only strengthened the Sports Illustrated model's voice.
Teigen, 33, took to Instagram on Sunday to share an old photo of her naked body, her beautiful baby bump front and center.

Though it's obvious Teigen loves her babies, the model recently shared that being a mom isn't always easy, opening up about her battle with postnatal depression following the birth of her first child.
End the stigma: 'We encourage everyone to share their stories. Open up the dialogue so there is no stigma,' Teigen said
The model praised her husband, 40-year-old singer John Legend, for being her 'strength' and being 'really watchful' over her as she struggled after Luna's arrival in April of 2016.
She told The Today Show: 'John and my doctors were my strength. I had such a good group of people that were around and people were really watchful of me.
Speaking of the debilitating condition, she continued: 'I had really changed. It wasn't just being tired, it was being really sad and hard on yourself and down on yourself.

'It wasn't just the blues and a lot of us think it is the baby blues you are going through.'
The Sports Illustrated model said she initially thought it was 'natural' to feel that way but praised the people around her for helping her to realize it wasn't.
She said: 'It happened with my first one, with [my daughter] Luna. I just didn't know there was any other way to feel. I thought it was natural to be in this low point.

'I just assumed that was motherhood and no other way around it, Teigen said, continuing, 'Until people around me starting telling me they saw distinct changes in my personality that was really helpful to me.'
The model said she's outspoken about her battles so that other women will feel like they can open up, too.
'Speaking to the women made me realize just what a different feeling it is - it's a unique experience that can be really tough. We encourage everyone to share their stories. Open up the dialogue so there is no stigma,' Teigen said
